No, they're not all the same, though yes, they do all cover local news.

Also, no, it does have something to do with politics - specifically, in the local news stories they cover or don't cover, and in the approach to those local news stories.

It's more subtle that the crazies at FoxNews, but it's there.

I used to watch Fox 5 DC because I enjoyed their on air talent. The reporting seemed comprehensive and harmless. In recent years though, when a lot of the veteran anchors have jumped ship, and people like Marina Marraco have become more prominent, it definitely feels like the narrative has shifted. I don't watch local news much anymore, but when I do, I usually turn on News4. The only reason I turn into Fox 5 anymore is because they start their evening news coverage at 10PM, and I go to bed too early to catch the 11PM coverage on other networks (I'm 35, I swear!)

If you can't see the bias, you are part of the problem.


Ooh, now tell us about the bias at the NYT, WaPo, CNN, MSNBC, PBS, etc. We'll wait. Or rather, we won't. You ARE the problem.

It looks like bias because they’re calling out all of the truly horrible things that MAGAs have done. Stop doing so much crazy sh1t if you don’t want to hear about it. I certainly don’t want to hear about it. If you weren’t acting like insane a-holes 24x7 the news would be more balanced. When the news does NOT call out blatant lies/criminal activity and pushes propaganda (openly or subtly) then it’s truly biased.


Wow. So you clearly can't admit to all the crazy things the far-left does. Everything you just said is pure projection on your part. Face it, you're happy with your own airtight echo chamber, but can't stand for others to have their own. So typical and so clueless.

There is absolutely nothing "right wing" on WJLA. Are you on drugs?

Sharyl Attkisson for starters.

DP. but have you followed her at all in the last 10 years? Anti-vax. Fake news. Fact checking is how the media lies to you. Benghazi! I don't even want to link any of her blog posts because they're sensationalist and blatant misinformation.


Attkisson is a right wing loon who traffics in conspiracy theories and nonsense.


Says the left wing loon who can't stand to hear opposing viewpoints. Yawn.

DP sure. There is no left wing in this country. There is only right wing crazies and their media. If only the left stormed the Capitol but it was the right. If only the left wanted to dissolve the constitution but again it is the right wing. The right is the problem. They disloyal anti constitutional thugs who attempted a coup. It is time for them to pay the price for their actions.

Corruption, treason, racism, homophobia, and misogyny are not just “different opinions”.

I watch Fox5 DC regularly. Theri news are seminar to other local TV stations but I like some of their special programs:
Jim Lokay runs a program at 11:30 pm, which I watch almost daily. NBC4, ABC7, and CBC9 all run evening talk shows at 11:30 pm that aren't funny or interesting.
Kati Barlow started a new show called "In the Courts." it's interesting and informative. She looks very rigid or tense on TV but I prefer the content more than the person.

Here is the link to their website: https://www.fox5dc.com/.
Please tell me which piece is pro-republican.

I care, actually. There was something very wrong happening there. And people do care.

It wouldn't matter. The PP is making up things to stir the pot. As usual.
